    He won't lace his shoes because he will be air-sick from traveling to America to do so. He will only recover from his air sickness when Roy Jones is 5 years past his prime and can't lace his shoes by himself.

    You are right, he couldn't lace his boots, however he WOULD box his sock off.

    Jones wouldn't fight Joe because Joe was a full time fighter, not a beat cop, or a truck driver, trash man. etc.:deal

    Calzaghe was 37 and right at the end of his career when he busted up RJJ, its not like he was in his prime beating the old man up, even though RJJ clearly had more wear and tear and been up and down weights. Yes, a prime Roy probably beats Calzaghe, but anywhere near the humiliation RJJ got that night? Not a chance, realistically

    If anyone was a master of fighting trash men, pub managers and street pimps in his backyard it's Joe Calzaghe. There's a reason no one knew who the hell he was and still don't.

    You know there's a problem when someone with 40 fights rolls on the floor in tears and screams "Daddy he doesn't punch hard!, daddy, daddy look, I'm still here!" in celebratory disbelief for beating someone with 20 fights.

    joe could lace his boots np his hands were good for that. his hand problems only emerged when he had to avoid a fight with someone world class.

    well he had just had his best results, so he must have been close to prime.

    either that or he was struggling with largely overmatched subdomestics for 10 years.

    so Hopkins is trashman by your definition? no one would agree with u on this, its your view alone but we'll go with it.....

    ok so you mean joe fought an aged trashman in old hopkins, even worse than fighting trashman. haha you fail shot down by your own bullets. easily to kill caztards.

    Calzaghe would have always been a H2H nightmare for a low output fighter like Jones. I'd pick him to beat Roid everytime.

    Roy didn't fight Eubank, Michalczewski, Benn, or Rocchigiani.

    I'm not saying they would have beaten him, but they were better opponents than blown up Pazienza, Julio Cesar Gonzalez, Antione Byrd, and Clinton Woods.

    frying? u mean he didn't use sunblock? oh I get you.

    no wonder Hopkins said no witeboys gonna beat him, cos a witeboy without sunblock would fry in America.
